Shimmerquick

Shimmerquick is an Aeluon fertility festival that has become a popular holiday in many multispecies colonies. It is not a celebration of lust, but rather of life and ancestry.

Aeluon fertility is taken very seriously, to the point where an Aeluon legend states that a war was paused when a prominent general began to shimmer. Historically, Shimmerquick was one of the few occasions for the segregated male and female villages to interact.

Central to any Shimmerquick celebration is the creche display. This is a trade show of sorts where different creches - groupings of certified fathers who raise Aeluon children - present themselves.
